RZX - one place for all rumors

[Z3CO23]

Agree. From the marketing persons post, it sounds as if they are launching a complete new website. I am guessing there is going to be one large and significant marketing push that will include the RZX, TAPS3 and any other changes.

I can respect that and if it's true, it still doesn't excuse not being able to get a boat on a current website that is being ordered and sold at dealerships. Malibu managed to get teh 25 lsv on the site, moomba is updated for 2016, supra is updated for 2016, Nautique is updated for 2016. I don't care what their strategy is...... a boat for sale that is not on the company's website and available for view is unacceptable. I don't care who for Tige see's this or it makes angry. It's ridiculous. I'm not even in the market for a new boat and it makes me angry..... I linger around several boat forums and Tige takes a beating for this exact thing. Do a quick google search for market share for wakeboats. I love my dealer and my boat but they way this has been handles is unacceptable. It baffles me, flat out baffles me.

Here's a link to a RZX that is up for sale. Has plenty of pics to calm everyone's nerves! There are only a handful of these out at this point from what I have heard so that's maybe why they aren't being seen. I have been on this one and have seen the surf wave, but was caught up in the moment and didn't worry about my phone to video it. Performance marine would've had some great video and shots of all the waves this thing is possible of it it weren't for the drone hitting the water on the last shot and sinking 25 feet! If the pics aren't enough then take a trip to Osage beach MO and have performance give you a tow!

Take a search for the marketing blunder of the new Supreme 238. On CC, there are guys that have purchased a new 238 - making payments, have it in their possession. They are not allowed to post any pics or videos and if they do, they are being removed by the request of Fineline. This is complete BS. Don't sell them until the client is allowed to have the pride of showing off their new baby. Supreme is releasing it on Friday at 1 PST and owner's cannot post until 1:01 PST according to Fineline. There is also one more Supreme being released next Friday and a new Centurion the following Friday...same rules on these. The boats are getting out and they are making people take down pics. At least Tige is allowing the clients to post pictures.

Looks alot like the ASR with a few new features and a Supra like front end. Nice to see that they are getting rid of more carpet (storage lockers). The new rear facing seat is nice. I am really surprised that they didn't incorporate a rear facing seat behind the drive like the Z3 has - we generally use all the rear facing seating when people are riding. Still up in the air on the cooler location...have to lift a lid to then open another cooler (different location, but its the same in our G23 in floor cooler and I hate it) - liked the single lid of our old Z1 or the rear transom cooler on our G23...open it up and grab a cold one, nice and simple. I am very interested to see how the new hull shape with Taps 3 performs.

I can appreciate what they are trying to do. My gripe is that I don't think the performance and marketing of the surf wave should be left to owners pics and video's and events at dealerships. Tige should have been out in front of that, in my opinion. It's not the dealers or customers job to provide literature and picture/video to prospective buyers, it's Tige's. I know there are people who disagree with me and I respect that. It's just how I feel.

Instead of checking here and complaining about the RZX marketing efforts you could just visit tige.com and see the RZX page.

Maybe Tige wants to do a limited release. Maybe they don't want to blast the interweb with pics and other marketing collateral.

They will be very similar to the ASR specs.

Blast the interwebs??? Their own website is hardly blasting the interwebs. The tige.com page for the RZX your referencing was just put up today along with the video associated with it on youtube. It wasn't there at 10 mp Denver time last night. As a matter of fact, 2 hours ago the youtube video was posted. You can go back and read the entire thread and find plenty of owners wanting details on the boat. All I said, is I don't understand why independent dealerships and owners are the first ones showing a bad *** new surf boat and not the company that makes it. Plenty of people are looking for G type boat with G type surfwave, without G type pricetag. Sounds like a perfectly good reason to get it advertised to me. If you take that as complaining so be it.

I understand brand loyalty and why people go so die hard about it, hell, I always represent Tige as great, because it is. That doesn't mean I can't disagree with them or have a difference of opinion about how they get people to buy more of their boats.

Why is it sitting on a triple axle trailer is my question?

Have you seen an ASR on a double axle trailer? It just looks wrong, the freeboard is so high it makes it look like its a 25' boat. IMHO, it's just esthetics.
